If you want to attract bees,butterflies and hummingbirds to your yard, you will want to plant 'Ivory Silk'. This choice form of the Japanese Tree Lilac begins to bloom at a younger age than other cultivars, and is a more compact plant overall. Huge panicles of tiny creamy-white flowers are magnets for pollinators in early summer. Persistent seed heads gradually shift from green to brown, and last into the winter months.
